Our teacher at training college gave the whole class this one just as we left to brave the world: Never forget You can please some of the people all of the time You can please all of the people some of the time But you can never please all of the people all of the time! He was dead right! Margaret Maid Marion, What does DLTBGYD mean? Jess Bow, That's a good one!

My Dad used to say 'There is no point in worrying. It may never happen and you will have worried for nothing and if it does, you will have worried for longer than neccessary'. Chrissie x

Nothing specific to me but a nutter english teacher and form tutor I used to have said, Manners maketh the man. So, always be respectful and have some decorum. Mine own personal liking is Carpe Diem. Make the most of what you can.
